Overview
In addition to the fonts available in the SundaySky Font Library, you can upload custom fonts that you created or purchased. The fonts you upload are added only to your account and can be accessed by all other users in the same account.
Here are the key points to know about working with a custom font:
| ● | A custom font, just like a font from the SundaySky Font Library, can be used to configure a text style in any brand. |
| ● | The SundaySky platform enables formatting text as bold or italic. So that you can use both these formatting actions on a custom font, we recommend that any font you upload include the following four styles: regular, bold, italic, bold-italic. Following is an example of a complete "font family" with all the recommended styles: |
| ● | Supported font formats are TrueType fonts (.ttf files) and OpenType fonts (.otf files). |
| ● | A custom font is uploaded via a brand. This can be the brand used in the video currently open in the Studio or any random brand in your account. |
| ● | The instructions in this article describe how to upload a font via a random brand and have it ready for future use. |
Uploading a Font
| 1. | In the Studio, click Brand in the sidebar. |
| 2. | Hover over any brand thumbnail and then click the Options menu. |
